I had some trouble getting the torte to set properly. I think I might have overmixed the ice cream.

I found this torte to be a bit too tart. I think I would have preferred it if the lime flavor was a bit more subtle.

This torte is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The crust was delicious and the ice cream was creamy and smooth.

This lime ice cream torte was a huge hit with my family! The combination of the tangy lime ice cream and the sweet berry sorbets was perfect. The crust was also delicious and held everything together perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
